NATO victory framing in Kosovo peace deal questioned
A peace accord ending NATO bombing in Yugoslavia is framed as a NATO victory, but critics warn the deal cedes key points, risks prolonging conflict, and masks broader costs. The plan calls for Serb withdrawal, NATO peacekeepers, Kosovar autonomy, and KLA disarmament, while questions remain on feasibility and long-term stability.

He contends unions educators and crusaders push long schooling and welfare systems, hindering real responsibility and maturity gained through work. Lowell notes his Hoover Institution role and critiques current compulsory attendance as overextended baby-sitting.
